UTEP LB Connor Helsius: Experienced depth with limited 2025 production
Connor Helsius is a veteran UTEP linebacker at 6-0, 215 who brings size, familiarity with the program, and depth value, but his on-field production has been modest: UTEP listed him with three solo stops in seven games in 2025, and ESPN’s player page shows five solo tackles overall with no sacks, forced fumbles, or interceptions. That profile suggests a reliable, assignment-driven defender rather than a splash-play disruptor, making him more appealing as a rotational fit or special-teams piece than an immediate difference-maker.[1][2]
